Russian energy giant Gazprom will deliver gas to Europe via
alternative routes if Ukraine starts tapping Europe-bound gas, the
company’s CEO Alexei Miller said Monday.
He said that Gazprom would keep daily records of volumes of Russian gas leaving the Ukrainian gas transit network."If we notice that [some] gas is on the territory of Ukraine… in this
case, we would boost deliveries via the Nord Stream, the Yamal-Europe
pipelineand will increase the volumes of gas stored in underground
storage facilities in Europe," he said.

Russia's Gazprom and China are poised to conclude a gas supply
contract in coming weeks, the first in a series of energy projects
planned between the two countries.

“We’re working now to sign a gas contract in May," said Deputy Prime
Minister Arkady Dvorkovich. "Consultations are continuing and Gazprom's
leaders are holding talks with Chinese partners on the contract terms.
We hope to conclude the contract in May and believe it should come into
effect by the year end."
